Goodbye 2011, hello 2012.


So I was going to do this long post about reflecting on my year, but I changed my mind.
Basically to sum it up, 2011 was epic.
SO yea, 2012, go ahead and be better than 2011.
That would be awesome.
So what got me through the year? MUSIC. I leave you with a playlist, so get your new years on to some of my favorite artists of 2011 under the cut, it's a ton of YTlinks:

It's almost 2012

(Cocaine 80s-Anywhere But Here)
Anyone else as annoyed as I am with hearing how people are going to "Make a change," "Be a whole new person," "Take over" Or the most annoying of them all "2012 is my year." ....You say that every year. STOP IT. Change starts slowly over time; start now, start yesterday. I can't believe how quickly this year went by!
All I look forward too is blooming. The seeds have been sown, and its time to blossom.

Music Moment, Lana Del Rey


I'm going to take a break from the Christmas posts because I have become OBSESSED with Lana Del Rey. First off, her music is hypnotizing, second... She is incapable of looking ugly. She's sooooo beautiful. Her music though, is seriously AMAZING. Indie pop/folk pop, like I said, its hypnotizing. I'll let your judge for yourself, But I think she's too genius.

After staring at red,green, and gold Christmas posts from everywhere, I looked at my silver tree with pink ornaments and thought.... Lets make Christmas just pink. I loves it.

Christmas Nail Art

In celebration of finishing my Christmas shopping, and wanting to feel the Christmas spirit, I am doing 4 days of Christmas posts. I'm behind on doing my Christmas nails! I'm doing red with white shatter on top, and solid green on my ring finger nails.
I did my nails like this last year!
Too Cute!

Can't go wrong with simple red glitter!
I would have done 5 christmas posts but yesterday was really busy. I spent most of the day at work, and then trying to delete a virus on my computer. It was the smartest virus I've ever dealt with but I got rid of it! I'm such a Nerd. ANYWAY.Hope everyone is inspired and tries out some great nail art!

2012 Tangerine Tango

The Pantone color of the year for 2012 is going to be Tangerine Tango!  
While doing my research for one of my consumer behavior projects I discovered a list of potential colors and judging by the spring 2012 shows, it was pretty evident that tangerine tango was going to be it.




Here is a breakdown of some of the past colors.

Its Beginning to Feel A lot Like..

I woke up this morning, and it really is beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. I have finals next week, and finals have taken (and always do) precedence over my birthday. I'll be 22, where does the time go? Anyway, in this time, I wish I lived in L.E.S. having a posh holiday gathering with fashionable intellects.  Harper's Bazaar captured this in a spread for the party issue this holiday.
Solange, Santogold, Lykke Li, David Agbodji, James Blake, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Sky Ferreira, and Spank Rock are all featured in the spread.
One day. Le sigh.
